Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Just in time.....
....for grouse hunting! I found this ca1911 Durston Special in my local pawnshop and felt the uncontrollable urge to rescue it. It is a 12 gauge with 30 inch fluid steel barrels. It is my 4th Syracuse gun and actually the best condition, overall. The other three (2 Gs and an H)had been run through the mill to one degree or another and showed signs of 'gunsmith' tampering. This DS was covered in dried up oil and crud on the exterior. The interior was interesting, though! The entire interior was packed with brown, waxy stuff that I assumed was dried up grease. I even found it packed inside of the little plunger that holds the toplever open. Whoever owned it kept it well oiled. The head of the stock was quite saturated and required lots of acetone soaking.

Good for you. I rescued an I Grade myself which is very similar to yours. It is my first Lefever and won't be the last
